Here is what the patron knows about the book. He heard the author on
Milt Rosenberg's radio program (WGN radio, Chicago) about 30 years
ago. The author had a background in trade and commerce and the patron
is certain that this was his first novel. It involved a Russian KBG
agent that worked undercover in the White House. Because of a minor
clerical error, the Russians were led to believe that he was a double
agent and so had him killed. There was considerable detail about the
KBG headquarters in Russia and their culture.
Any clues would be greatly appreciated.
